Day 5. HaLong Bay – Hue
Overnight – Azerai La Residence Hue
Wake up to stunning views and then, after refreshments you have the option to experience this morning’s scheduled excursion. Then the leisurely cruise back begins, giving you ample time for brunch and more relaxation and photography. Check out of your cabin and you are met by your Connoisseur Guide and chauffeur at the dock.
Flight to Hue. You are driven to Hanoi airport to board your flight to Hue, The City of Mist. From Hue airport you are driven to your historic riverfront resort for check-in. By far Hue’s best lodging option, it was the residence of the French Resident Superieure in times past, and you will be in their top suite.
Hue History & Culture. Hue is known for its magnificent monuments built under the Nguyen Dynasty (1802 – 1945), and also famous for its cuisine, as well as its unique conical hats. But Hue has an authentic Vietnamese charm all its own, and unlike Hanoi and Saigon, the city has a relaxed vibe. A morning or evening stroll on the Perfume River is highly recommended. Hue’s impressive Citadel is one of Vietnam’s eight UNESCO World Heritage Sites because of it being such a fine example of an Eastern Feudal Capital. Hue’s historical Nguyen Kings Tombs are equally interesting, and very ornate and colorful.
